Changed in version RELEASE.2022-12-13T00-23-28Z: mc admin bucket quota replaced by:

Description

The mc admin bucket quota command manages per-bucket storage quotas.

Use mc admin on MinIO Deployments Only

MinIO does not support using mc admin commands with other S3-compatible services, regardless of their claimed compatibility with MinIO deployments.

Units of Measurement

The mc admin bucket quota --hard flag accepts the following case-insensitive suffixes to represent the unit of the specified size value:

Suffix	Unit Size
`k`	KB (Kilobyte, 1000 Bytes)
`m`	MB (Megabyte, 1000 Kilobytes)
`g`	GB (Gigabyte, 1000 Megabytes)
`t`	TB (Terrabyte, 1000 Gigabytes)
`ki`	KiB (Kibibyte, 1024 Bites)
`mi`	MiB (Mebibyte, 1024 Kibibytes)
`gi`	GiB (Gibibyte, 1024 Mebibytes)
`ti`	TiB (Tebibyte, 1024 Gibibytes)

Omitting the suffix defaults to bytes.

Examples

Configure a Hard Quota on a Bucket

Use mc admin bucket quota with the --hard flag to specify a hard quota on a bucket. Hard quotas prevent the bucket size from growing past the specified limit.

mc admin bucket quota TARGET/BUCKET --hard LIMIT

Replace TARGET with the alias of a configured MinIO deployment. Replace BUCKET with the name of the bucket on which to set the hard quota.
Replace LIMIT with the maximum size to which the bucket can grow. For example, to set a hard limit of 10 Terrabytes, specify 10t. See Units of Measurement for supported units.

Retrieve Bucket Quota Configuration

Use mc admin bucket quota to retrieve the current quota configuration for a bucket:

mc admin bucket quota TARGET/BUCKET

Replace TARGET with the alias of a configured MinIO deployment. Replace BUCKET with the name of the bucket on which to retrieve the quota.

Clear Configured Bucket Quota

Use mc admin bucket quota with the --clear flag to clear all quotas from a bucket.

mc admin bucket quota TARGET/BUCKET --clear

Replace TARGET with the alias of a configured MinIO deployment. Replace BUCKET with the name of the bucket on which to clear the quota.

Syntax

mc admin bucket quota has the following syntax:

mc admin bucket quota TARGET [ARGUMENTS]

mc admin bucket quota supports the following arguments:

TARGET

The full path to the bucket for which the command creates the quota. Specify the alias of the MinIO deployment as a prefix to the path. For example:

mc admin bucket quota play/mybucket

Omit all other arguments to return the current quota settings for the specified bucket.

--hard

Sets a maximum limit to the bucket storage size. The MinIO server rejects any incoming PUT request whose contents would exceed the bucket’s configured quota.

For example, a hard limit of 10GB would prevent adding any additional objects if the bucket reaches 10GB of size.

See Units of Measurement for supported unit sizes.

--clear: Clears all quotas configured for the bucket.
